[Chorus]
Alimony alimony work till my fingers are bloody and boney
Me oh my oh goodness sake I'm paying for my mistake

[Verse 1]
Ali-money I call it ali-money you married men may think it's funny
'Till one fine day you'll wake and find you're paying for your mistake

[Verse 2]
Every Friday when I get my pay I put it in an envelope and mail it away
Same old song with a little more blues in it
I'm paying for it while someone else's usin' it

[Chorus]
Alimony alimony I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney
Me oh my oh goodness sake I'm paying for my mistake

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Alimony alimony I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney
Me oh my oh goodness sake I'm paying for my mistake
Every payday paying for my mistake yes I am friends
Yes I am friends
